Chorus waves are mysterious, chirping signals produced by spiraling plasma inside our planet's magnetic field. But a new ...

Earth’s magnetic north pole is on the move—and in surprising ways. With the release of the World Magnetic Model 2025, ...

As sunspots emerge on the sun's surface close to its equator, their orientations will match the old magnetic field, while ...

But robotic and crewed explorations have determined that the field is non-existent today. Planetary magnetic fields are created by what is known as a dynamo effect, where a magnetic field is ...

Mars' dramatic north-south divide has puzzled scientists for half a century. However, they may now have a conclusive answer.

The magnetic field around Jupiter is enormous, with a strength some 20,000 times greater than that of Earth! The magnetosphere is some 1200 times larger in size than that found around the Earth! Note ...

David Bressan is a geologist who covers curiosities about Earth. Without its magnetic field, life on Earth would not be possible since this shields us from harmful cosmic radiation and charged ...

Additionally, the role of slow magnetostrophic waves has been explored in relation to the formation of the axial dipole, a dominant feature of planetary magnetic fields. These waves, which arise ...

A study using data from ESA's Swarm mission suggests that faint magnetic signatures created by Earth's tides can help us ...

NASA's MMS mission discovered whistler-mode chorus waves in an unexpected region, the terrestrial mid-tail neutral sheet, ...

Mars's atmosphere and climate are impacted by interactions with solar wind, a stream of plasma comprised of protons and ...
